Special Education Workshop on IEPs

Are you the parent of a student in Special Education? In District 200? Anywhere in McHenry County? Do you spend more time at your child’s school than he does? This year get his IEP right, and get it right early in the year while they is still time for success.

I’ve heard it said that no child with an IEP should fail. Of course, I never heard that in a school

A very special, three-evening workshop will be presented on October 22, October 29 and November 5 at MCC, right here in our own backyard. Maureen Lowry-Fritz is an attorney and mother of four children, two of whom have received special education services. She knows first-hand what we are going through.

This workshop is a series – all three nights. It is not the same program presented on three different evenings. Register soon (by October 15) and make arrangements now to attend all three evenings. Plan some extra time to socialize and meet other parents with similar problems.

Perhaps some parent support groups will come out of this workshop. They are sorely needed in McHenry County.

Children should not be brought to the workshop, as no child care will be provided.
